| My Prayer |
| Circa 1922 |
Teach me the love that I owe to a mother,
Teach me respect for each sister, each brother,
Teach me forbearance toward one another,
Teach me these things.
Teach me of honour to love and defend,
Teach me the true finer meaning of friend,
Teach me true labour brings rest at the end,
Teach me these things.
Teach me that kindness is finer than gold,
Teach me of glory rewarding the bold,
Teach me the faith that will never grow old,
Teach me these things.
Teach me true beauty reflects from the soul,
Teach me in life to make heaven my goal,
Teach me in danger your grace to enrol
Teach me these things
Teach me to smile though my eyes fill with tears,
Teach me to laugh though my heart aches with fears,
Teach me endurance throughout all the years,
Teach me these things.
Teach me to journey all of life's road,
Teach me to carry light though heavy the load,
Teach me to die, and then Oh my God
Teach me all things.
